Hi guys,
I posted 2 months back about the same issue, not sure if im supposed to make a new post about it or not.
basically my immersion heater (side mounted) keeps failing every 2-3 months. I have an ideal stainless steel cylinder with an immersion mounted on the side.
the failure is the same every time- water starts getting into the thermostat tube and causes the rcd to trip.
the last time i replaced the immersion, i noted the earth connection at the timer switch was not connected properly and i thought poor grounding was the root cause.
unfortunately this hasnt worked.. im on my 4th immersion in under a year.
Any help would be massive.
